This week's SOD relates that Darin Brooks' pilot was picked up, and that "the original plan was to find a new love interest for Max" when Rachel Melvin left. But now where Brooks is set to start filming his pilot in June, SOD says that "the show is currently weighing its options." An "insider" says that this might mean more screen time for Wes Ramsey, "whose role is still being kept under wraps". Days had no comment.

I was trying to remove you know who's Mia post and a couple of other posts related to it and then ended up deleting the thread because I wasn't paying attention like I should have been.

I apologize for the inconvenience.

My wonderful posts...GONE! This horrible deed must have consequences!!!! :P:lol::lol:

Nah nah, just kidding, we all make mistakes!

But as I said in the other thread, I wonder if like it was speculated, that half sister of Philip's the show was casting was the new love interest for Max, and if Darin ends up gone, those plans will be scrapped...and in response to DrewH's suggestion that Wes Ramsey's character gets paired with Stephanie, I think in that case he should be a recast Jeremy Horton...the show really needs Horton's, Stephanie and Jeremy have a history together, and Jeremy would serve as a perfect replacement for Max.

Yea, doesn't sound like he's necessarily gone yet, they are just waiting to see if his pilot is a success. Though, they could go ahead and cast a new love interest and put her with someone else if DB leaves. Melanie was brought on for Nick and now seems ridiculously like the Heather Locklear of the show (which is so mind boggling) so who knows.

They will probably just wait and see and play Max the way they have been. He won't see much airtime and definitely will see less once Rachel leaves (she's barely seen much herself). I don't see them leaving together now. I'm guessing she either taped or will tape the last episode very soon and I don't think they will commit to writing him out yet. Perhaps if it goes well, they will have Rachel come on for a an episode or two to have Chelsea come back for him and then they leave together. It could end up being one of those deals.

I think he will end up staying. The show wants him. He kind of hints at this being a nice backup plan for him in case things end up bad for the show. I think he's just covering his bases but also wants to stay as long as the show is there. We'll see. I think he will stay though in the end.
